Kanye West ft. Dwele "Power"

Lakers won last night. Alicia and Swizz announce their union and baby on the way. Yeah, things didn't look promising. While all those things are going down, Kanye drops new music on the planet and for a moment things look a little brighter. Yeah, I'm a Ye fan since day one (hahahaha). Anyway, enjoy Kanye West featuring Dwele "Power". Good ass job, Kanye.

From A Night At The Clowns' Table ... 50 Tyson

So........9pm rolls around and the fellas get on the conference. Khal, ThroatChopu aka Q, BeanPie aka Shaun and I are discussing 10 videos to list for Shaun's BeanPiePromotions.com site. We were looking for a bonus video, something we can kinda laugh at. Khal decides to hit us with this cat named 50 Tyson. I don't even know where to begin. The name? The speech? The flows? The delivery? The punchlines? Wow. I'm speechless besides the nonstop losses of breath due to the overwhelming laughter. Again, wow. See for yourself.

What I'm Watching ... Kil Ripkin "Not You"

I didn't even realize the homie had a new video out. It's a good thing I attended the weekly BeanpiePromotions.com video selection meeting. Kil Ripkin is dope. We've featured him on the blog before. His music has a message. Pay attention. Enjoy.

What I'm Watching ... Xzibit - "Phenom featuring Kurupt & 40 Glocc"

Ran into this on MySpace. Yeah, I still got a MySpace account and randomly check it. So what. Haha. Check out this new joint by Xzibit. Dude cut his braids off. I'm about to grow mine back. I like to do the opposite of what heads are doing. Haha.

Back before the 'Pimp My Ride' Days' Xzibit was regularly laying down killer verses with the likes of Em and Dre. Now "X to the Z" returns with a video for his new single "Phenom," the first single following the West Coast rapper's lengthy hiatus.

Where I'll Be ... Blitz x The Roots + Talib Kweli @ PROSPECT PARK

Stop. Sleeping. On. Blitz. I keep telling folks this. I've been following dude for a while now. Shoot, maybe I'm late to finding him but I know there's a lot of folks not even paying attention. They definitely should be. Blitz is dope. I've never seen him preform live but I heard it's quite the experience. So, O hits me up with the info on the show in Brooklyn the same weekend I'll be hanging heavy in Brooklyn for the Brooklyn Hip-Hop Festival. So, guess who's hanging around Brooklyn a little longer. That's right, this guy. If you're in the area, you'd want to check Blitz x The Roots x Talib Kweli x more.

This summer promises to be a major one for Blitz the Ambassador and his Ensemble. Last week we announced the historic SummerStage show with Blitz and Public Enemy at Central Park. Now we are proud to announce that Blitz will share the stage with The Legendary Roots Crew and Host Talib Kweli at a very special Celebrate Brooklyn + OkayAfrica World Cup Finals Party @ Prospect Park on July 11th. Also performing are Bajah and Dry Eye Crew and Sahr Ngaujah (FELA!). As Ghana makes its second appearance at the World Cup, it is one of the African teams with high expectations of reaching the finals. Lets keep our fingers crossed. GO GHANA!!! GO!!!!

Download ... "Mike Murder" @MikeSchpitz

I'll be honest, my immediate reaction wasn't "Q, you gotta listen to this joint." Quite the contrary, it was "a white dude holding a 'bloody' knife? Plus it's called Mike Murder? Yeah, pass." Maybe that's because I'm not familiar with the Midwestern up-and-comer Mike Schpitz. But then I hit play. Dude definitely has some lyrics, as he goes in over a gang of industry beats from DJ Premier, Dr Dre, RZA and Timbaland, among others. It's worth a listen. It's definitely worth a listen. At ten tracks, it's perfect for me. Check out one of my favorite cuts off the project. If you dig it, check out the full project. Enjoy.

"Didn't believe I was def until some checks starting clearing ..."

I don't need to say Shad is dope because I've already said that a number of times. Anyway, the homie Shad dropped his new album TSOL north of the border on Tuesday and is already the # 2 joint on iTunes in Canada. I'm still working on getting a copy of the new joint. Soon come. Like I've said before, Shad is a cool dude. According to his blog he's been getting a lot of love in Canada too with the project. This is a piece that the National Post did with Shad. Enjoy.
